French Authorities Investigate Reappearance Of Cocolan Website
French justice officials are investigating a website that has returned under a new name and web address after being previously banned. Investigators are examining allegations of insider trading related to the platform's operations. Investigators are reopening the case due to concerns that the site could be used to organize illegal activities. The website reportedly has very little moderation and was previously shut down. Authorities noted that shutting down such platforms is notoriously difficult. A website previously used by the ex-husband of Giselle Peliqo to recruit men to rape her has reappeared online. The chat site was originally shut down by French authorities in 2024. The French government has tripled its inspections to combat fraud and malpractice on foreign e-commerce platforms including Shein, Temu, and AliExpress.
